The Duchess of Kent is a traditional Young’s pub at 441 Liverpool Road in Islington. It combines the easygoing character of a north London local with a full food service, making it suitable for a casual lunch, dinner, drinks or watching live sport.
The kitchen uses fresh seasonal produce from local suppliers and gives British dishes a contemporary touch. Homemade pies, substantial pub classics and sharing boards provide familiar choices, while changing dishes allow the menu to follow the time of year.
Sunday lunch is a particular focus, with a selection of roast meats, heritage seasonal vegetables, gravy and Yorkshire puddings. Snacks, lighter choices and indulgent desserts make it possible to visit for anything from a quick bite to a complete three-course meal.
Wine, beer, cocktails, spritzes and alcohol-free serves cover different occasions at the bar. The pub can become lively around major sporting fixtures, and guests with allergies, intolerances or dietary requirements should discuss the current menu with the team before ordering.
Address: 441 Liverpool Road, Islington, London N7 8PR, England
